So this pisses me off very much, we give police officers a lot of power and responsibility and in turn, they’re suppose to be out there protecting the public.  I’m sorry but part of the job is putting their lives on the line and if that’s something they can’t do, they should find another profession.

Peterson told commission lawyers that he debated what do next. He ultimately decided to turn around and give chase but before doing so drove for another 1.2 kilometres while the gunman drove out of sight. Peterson explained that after deciding to pursue the replica police cruiser, the highway was too narrow to make a quick U-turn so he continued driving north.

“I’m trying to decide, should I stop, slow down, talk to this person, or keep going?” Peterson told commission counsel.

“So, I said, ‘If I stop and this is the bad guy, I’m going to get shot here, I’m going to get killed. If I continue on, that will give me a chance to turn around and pursue him, or to do something,’” he stated.

This officer should be fired at a minimum, dereliction of duty and due to him not confronting the killer at the first opportunity probably cost people their lives…  Failures at all levels of the RCMP but it’s ok the Liberals say banning guns will solve this problem, ridiculous!
